I have google talk on my phone and I am able to send SMS messages between my friends with blackberry. Does Google talk also work on the iphone? I'm not sure that iphone can multitask so would they be notified without having the app opened?

I'm looking for a way to communicate without having to pay extra for text messaging.

Oh the iPhone bashing opportunities in this post are tremendous. But i won't go there.

Ask your friend what IM client they use. In the market there are several and I'll bet one of them will work with Droid and iPhone. Another thing you can do is set up your google voice for texting. This requires a little set up and your texting won't be as fast as you'd like however. Also you would need an invite to Google Voice if you don't have it already.

Ima hold off from exploding here but im letting my bro have it right now; after he start flapping his gums about him being able to use his phone to listen to police scanners and use it as a keyboard/mouse.

Iphone does not have a Gtalk client. My brother and I were trying to figure the same thing out the other day. the only thing they can do is log onto the gtalk url. (Google and apple don't necessarily get along) Im not sure they will ever get the google apps that we have.... Besides maps
